Kelvin dragged his feet entering the guildhall, grimacing. The last job had been longer than usual, two weeks. Of course the first week had been spent weeding a field, the second battling the wild boars that had decided the field was a good place to eat. Honestly between the two, the boars had been easier on him. Just outside he had passed two of the members. Blind boy and the other... strange one. The first's magic was straightforward, but he had no idea what the man's magic was. Not that it mattered, he barely knew any names in the guild besides Master Kage's. He stepped to the side respectfully as one of their few S class mages went by accompanied by the bookie. They were talking of parties, wealth, and entertainment. Automatically their voices were tuned out of his head. It had been years since he had left 'home'. There were no reasons to bring those memories back. His first stop was in the exact same spot he had last paused for a moment in the guild before leaving again those two weeks ago. The job board, heart of the guild.

None of the jobs seemed to quite match his abilities in the slightest. Underwater and kinetic magic? Poor mix. Rat extermination? He was about as useful as anything else. As for working on the farm.... Kelvin sighed in defeat. He could probably plow a field pretty quickly. But farms... always farms. Kelvin swiftly pulled the job offer from the board and made his way to the sparsely populated guild bar. The least a man could do was enjoy a hot meal before putting his sore body back to work. Kelvin collapsed into a barstool and lay his head on the counter with some relief. It might be nice to take a day off once in a while... He picked his head up and flattened the paper of the offer on the counter. Kelvin looked at it wearily and pondered aloud.

[b]"Should I take it?"[/b]

It might be time to look at what he had saved and start planning for the future.
